CEO's substitute bride (Alyssa)

Chapter 321

Chapter 321

Emmett returned to his room and replayed what Frances said in his mind.

There was no loophole in what she had said. It made perfect sense, but he felt that something was wrong.

Something was still missing in this whole thing.

Emmett felt that he still needed to meet Richard.

Richard and Frances got married when they were very young, but their relationship had gradually deteriorated over the years.

In his memory, Richard was a gentle and meticulous person. He had the romance of an artist and had made a name for himself in his early years. However, because he wanted to accompany Frances, he did not think much of his career.

However, in recent years, he had been busy with organizing different art exhibitions and participating in various activities. He did not even return to the Lawrence family to celebrate the Spring Festival.

What happened between the two of them that Richard didn’t even want to accompany Frances to Lawrence’s house?

Emmett made up his mind and went downstairs to find a maid to ask about Richard's phone number.

When he used to live at Frances's house, his relationship with Richard was pretty good. However, when he returned to Holston City later on, the contact between the two of them had gradually decreased. So far, there was no longer any contact between them.

He dialed Richard's number.

The phone rang several times before it connected.

"Hello?" Richard's voice was very gentle. Dylan was very similar to him on this point.

Emmett said quietly, "Uncle, it's me."

Richard's tone was a little surprised. "Emmett?"

"It's me. Where are you now? Do you have time to sit down and talk with me?" Emmett hadn’t seen Richard for many years, but he knew that Richard would not reject his request.

Richard was silent for a moment before he said, "Of course, but I will not return to Holston City."

"I am in Country M, at your home."

The other end of the phone became silent again.

Emmett did not urge Richard. He just quietly waited for his answer.

"Okay. My exhibition is over this afternoon. I will go home tonight. But don't let your aunt know about this."

"I know."

Richard would come back in the evening. The time was just right.
